White Hot Chocolate

This White Hot Chocolate is the best warm, winter pick-me-up! Just two ingredients and five minutes to make this delicious drink!

Two mugs of White Hot Chocolate with whipped cream on top, dusted with cinnamon and two cinnamon sticks and white chocolate chips on the side.

For me, part of the fun of the holidays is all the treats! I especially love hot chocolate when it's cold outside (who doesn't?) and recently I have found that White Hot Chocolate is my beverage of choice. It's sooo good you guys.

You can give me all the white chocolate things, honestly. These White Chocolate Chip Pretzel Cookies are to-die-for and White Chocolate Chip Blondies from Heaven, well, they're self-explanatory. I can't get enough.

With the abundance of treats this time of year, I try to make healthier substitutions where I can, so sometimes I will use almond milk in this recipe instead of cow's milk.

How to Make Homemade White Hot Chocolate

White chocolate chips in a small white saucepan with cinnamon sticks on the side.

  1. Combine white chocolate chips and milk in a small saucepan and warm over medium heat.
  2. Stir until white chocolate is melted and the drink is warmed to your taste.
  3. Top white hot chocolate with whipped cream and dust with cinnamon. 

The cinnamon dust is an extra step, but it is 100% worth doing. It takes the whipped cream to another level! 

Pro Tips:

In my opinion, the better your white chocolate chips, the better this will taste! I love Ghirardelli.

Use a whisk to get frothy white hot chocolate.

    Yummy! I like this because it’s not too sweet, but just sweet enough. A fun twist for HC!
